A few details would help

Most of the members create a sig listing their modifications which prevents
them from having to tell over and over what all has been done each time
help is requested

For this particular question ... auto or stick trans would really be a good
thing to know as it can make a difference

never the less

Mac and BBK are the two most used brands you see a lot of the members
here using.

I run Mac's on my 95

No probs with the install or since 2002 when I put them on

Does anybody have any experience with the Summit or Jeg's long tubes for Fox's? They're a fair bit cheaper, and that's a good thing for me!

I do, they are pieced headers. No problems here and they are reallllyyyy old. Just need to weld up one of the joints as its leaking.

I have the Macs/Prochmbr... Fit is good and no complaints, been onn and off 1/2 dozen times with no issues... Pass side is a tad tougher to get in. Def get ceramic coated if you plan on keeping the car, or care about looks...

I have the MAC 1-5/8" long tubes but since I live in a country where it almost never rains, they're not ceramic coated and cost just $230. Installation wasn't too painful and they still look great 14 months on.

ME!

I'm running bbk ceramic Lt's . Love the sound but they are tight around my auto trans.

Just don't wrap the headers with header wrap it will cause the ceramic coating to come off and start rusting.

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

I've had my BBKs for about 8 years now. They fit pretty good. I'm running them on raised port heads without any issues.
